Lost Generation

歌詞

The mother of the outlaw thinks about the time he had the mumps And she's really very sorry And she hopes this has nothing to do With the way she brought him up And the outlaw he lies wounded as the doctor gives the police sergeant a Nod And the last words he was saying Something about I do believe in God And who divides the oceans When a generation's lost its place And who sets the motion Of the human race And the sister of the prostitute She's trying to find the right way to love Cause when it gets down to make a living These days it's pretty hard for a girl to get it up And the romance on her street corner He rides around in Eldorado fame And lately she's been thinking That what she's been seeing in the movies just ain't the same And who divides the oceans When a generation's lost its place And who sets the motion Of the human race And the legless Vietnam survivor He's trying to find a job or a wife Cause he can't find peace with honor As he gets conditioned to his wheelchair life And the killers still run the country And they count their money With their bloodstained hands And lately I've been thinking Maybe it s time we really took a stand And who divides the oceans When a generation's lost its place And who sets the motion Of the human race
